Thanks Scott for that thoughtful response.
When I start to work with a young person and I sense that he really does not want to be in treatment, I terminate the treatment and explain that I feel that he doesn't want to be there. If that is correct, he stops seeing me, although it often isn't long before he is back, having seen the reality of things a little more clearly. The other possibility is that he sees the importance of therapy right then and there, in which case we can usually move forward.
